The Boar's Head deli meat plant at the heart of a deadly food poisoning outbreak is set to reopen in the coming months. Federal health officials lifted a forced suspension at the company's Jarratt, Virginia, site. However, new documents show that sanitation problems similar to those that led to listeria contamination persist at three other company sites — in Forrest City, Arkansas; New Castle, Indiana; and Petersburg, Virginia. The outbreak that began in July 2024 killed 10 people and sickened dozens more. The company recalled 7 million pounds of deli products nationwide, discontinued liverwurst and shut down the Jarratt site.
